Another example of CP overreaction. We should be kissing Dave Toub’s ass. Butker and Chenal alone were instrumental to playoff success, Toney’s return in the SB was huge, Skyy’s return in the Bengals AFCCG was huge. Hell just last year we beat the Broncos bc of Dave Toub. We were dead to rights and his coaching came through.
Remigio was an undrafted player that had 40+ yd returns in back-to-back playoff games.
The staff is still the best in the league

My issue with Toub wasn't Moore.
It was that when we weren't allocating 3-4 roster spots to "Toub's guys", the Special Teams units fell to shit for 2 years. It wasn't just dropped punts, it was silly execution errors, coverage lapses and unforced mistakes.
Exactly that kind of things you pay the "Best STs coach in football" to keep from happening. And as it turned out, he sure started looking like Gunther Cunningham -- great when he was guys that are already good, not so much when he has to cover for them and/or MAKE them good.
The ship righted for the most part last season, but he had a couple of pretty shitty years in there and it wasn't just because of Skyy Moore.
